INGREDIENTS

7 oz ground pork (93% lean)

1 oz buckwheat soba noodles

2 cups baby bok choy

0.5 tbsp tahini

1 tbsp tamari

0.5 tsp chili oil

1 tsp fresh ginger

1 clove garlic

2 tbsp scallions

0.25 tsp sichuan peppercorns

PREPARATION

• 1

  Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the buckwheat soba noodles for 4-5 minutes, adding the chopped baby bok choy during the last 60 seconds of cooking.

• 2

  Drain the noodles and bok choy, then rinse briefly under cold water to stop the cooking process and set aside.

• 3

  In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the tahini, tamari, chili oil, and ground Sichuan peppercorns until a smooth paste forms.

• 4

  Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the ground pork, using a spatula to break it into small pieces as it browns.

• 5

  Once the pork is cooked through and slightly crispy, add the minced ginger and garlic, sautéing for about 1 minute until the kitchen is aromatic.

• 6

  Reduce the heat to low, then add the cooked noodles, bok choy, and the prepared sesame sauce to the skillet.

• 7

  Toss everything vigorously for 1-2 minutes until the noodles are well-coated and the sauce is heated through.

• 8

  Divide the mixture into a bowl and garnish with the freshly sliced scallions before serving.
